Rushen Spy Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I'd be interested in an opinion from an actual scientist on the veracity of the claims. Paging @ChinaHand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Corkish (and one or two others) in a bottle would be a better idea...with the cork firmly secured by a wire thingy like a Grolsch bottle's got.

It's very varied depending on the area and such as limestone deposits etc. Isle of Man water was always excellent. Due to the Chlorine in it these days, it's maybe a bit yeughh* for some. I was told by a former Chief Exec (Smithy) of Water Authority that it needs to be sat in the fridge to allow the chlorine to evaporate off. Others have told me that is the usual bullshit and I am inclined to agreed. (How to remove Chlorine from tap water). It's a sorry state of affairs when people are buying bottles of drinking water. * 1.Back in the day I never heard of people being ill from drinking tap water 2. Tap water is fine and clean to wash your car and that. And for having a shower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hissingsid Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I have started boiling my tap water and letting it cool because sometimes there is a strong taste of chlorine. Would not dream of buying bottled unless traveling through airport or abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gettafa Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 But that's the point sid. The hassle of boiling water so you can drink it. It used to be a case of drink it straight from the tap. (ps does boiling it get rid of Chlorine? It certainly tastes very different after boiling and I doubt nicer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hissingsid Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Well I also let it lie for a while so it could be that but sometimes it is really strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pour it from cup to cup a couple of times to aerate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
